Video Viewer TroubleshootingIf the Video Viewer or the Virtual Media dialog box does not start, the local Java cache may be
corrupted. You can easily clear the cache without losing any data.
To clear the local Java cache:
1. Start the Java Control panel.
On supported Windows and Macintosh systems, this will be an item in the Control Panel.
On supported Linux systems, from a shell prompt, change directory to the bin directory where
Java is installed. Then type ./ControlPanel.
For example:
cd /usr/java/avocent/jrel.5.0_02/bin
./ControlPanel
2. Select the General tab.
3. Click the Settings button.
4. Click the View Applications button.
5. Select any DSView Video Viewer Application items.
